[Establishment of a German ICCR dataset : Translation and integration of SNOMED CT using the example of TUR-B].

ABSTRACT:

Background

The structured recording of data from histopathological findings and their interoperability is critical for quality assurance in pathology.

Materials and methods

To harmonize the content of the reports, the International Collaboration on Cancer Reporting (ICCR) has defined standardized datasets. These datasets are not yet available in German nationwide. This gap is addressed here using the transurethral bladder resection (TUR-B) dataset as a use case.

Results

We describe the process of establishing the datasets by carrying out translation, mapping on SNOMED CT codes, and using SNOMED CTs hierarchy to fill dropdown menus. Furthermore, we identified rules for checking for self-consistency of reports by using the example of the TUR bladder.
